Help Matt and Sam move out safely

Donation protected
Hey guys!

So this is the breakdown and I feel really bad having to do this but we are in a bind and really really need the help. It's urgent.

Here's our story:

My name is Matthew and I am an FtM transgender. I work with adults that have autism and have worked there for two years now. Since I was a kid I have suffered with chronic pain and severe anxiety and depression.
My job pays me 9$/hr and we live in a really expensive area of California, we barely make ends meet month-to-month. I have been having to deal with back-to-back doctors visits which are well over an hour away and have been struggling to get on SSI.

Me and my GF Sam (who works at the same place as me) have been together for 6+ years and even with her help we still barely make it. We have been living with an amazing couple who have invited us into their home despite our LGBT status and allowed us to pay our rent in portions to get by.
Recently our car has had issues and it's been increasingly difficult to save money to fix it.

With the car problems, my doctors visits and such our roommates mom is going to be moving into their home and unfortunately they have given us 2 months to find a place to go.
Seeing as how we live in a very expensive area with a minimum wage job, rent, car payments and bills of all sorts, we haven't been able to save any money.
The 200$ we have in savings will be going into getting our car fixed.
We have had trouble finding places to rent as people have mistreated us for being gay. We have received death threats and have been sent nasty emails.
As my mental state worsens I would rather not deal with that again and find our own place, our current roommates are a blessing and have left a mark on our hearts forever.

Seeing as how I have seen people get the help via this site before I am on my knees asking for help.
We want to try to move back into the area were all my doctors are and in order to do that we need a decent amount of cash.
5,000$ should cover our move, the cost for an apartment's security deposit and hopefully first months rent. Praying to have a bit left over in the case we cannot find a job within these next two months.

Any and all help is appreciated, I can even offer art commissions!
